Endless Waltz

I’m in hospital tomorrow so I did my homework a little earlier this time (for someone that doesn’t usually write in any proses, short form or poems….I seem to be using all three recently – And rather badly, I might add).

This poem/thingy is what it is and is nothing more.

 

Endless Waltz

 

For meaningful love to withstand- the fantasy must dissolve

Leaving you standing in a scarcely advertised desolation

Seeing and speaking to another as nothing but yourself

Without the glittering glare of skewed expectations

With a small human sneeze that says “It is Ok – to just be Real”

 

Reality should triumph with love growing strong

But the dance is often more important than the song

And someone has to clean up those scattered Rose petals

Before they curl away from life; rotting into brown dust

And taint the fresh fabric beneath with scattered intentions

 

Bricks used to build you up; Are the same ones you end up buried under

An open mind abruptly locks down; behind darkened eyes

The exhaustion of Love – becomes the precursor to its very demise

And the endless waltz across fairy tale pages – Stops.
